Knowing what happened
But not telling
Afraid of punishment
The excuse you are selling
You tell yourself they will never know
But it keeps nagging at you so

You fess up
Your mess up
And have no consequence
You fixed what you broke
And had common sense

Secrets will haunt you for all of your life
And waiting to tell with cause only strife
Tell what you did
They will understand
And even if they're mad
You'll feel better in the end
